Please use this checklist as a guide for reviewing your project’s data report prior to submission. You can print this checklist and use it to check your work for any data inconsistencies prior to pressing the ‘Submit’ button. This will help minimize any questions for you the AFI Data Team may have after you submit your data report. If you have any questions about this checklist, or the data report, please contact the AFI Resource Center Data Team at 1-866-778-6037 or via email at info@idaresources.org.
Section A

Contact info completed (A.10 - A.13)
Section B
OK Needs Follow Up
Appropriate questions answered based on type of AFI Project
If single agency selected in B.1, answers for B.8- B.15 are provided. B.16 - B.20 should not be answered if a single agency.
If Network agency selected in B.1., answers for B.16 - B.20 are provided. B.8 - B.15 should not be answered if a network project.
Agency Budget appears to be representative of entire agency, not just the IDA program (B.3)
Data management system information provided (B.4). If “other” selected, information is provided in the text box.
Section C
OK Needs Follow Up
If varies is selected in any of questions C.6 - C.21, text explaining variation appears. Info completed appears to be cumulative, that is numbers provided in 2012 Data Report are greater than or equal to numbers provided in the project’s 2011 Data Report for questions:
C.25 (number or participants who completed financial literacy training)
C.29 (number of participants who completed home purchase training)
C.32 (number of participants who completed education training)
C.35 (number of participants who completed business training)
C. 36 - 50 (number of participants receiving various services provided)
Section D
OK Needs Follow Up
D.1-D.5 appear cumulative, that is they are greater than or equal to numbers provided in the project’s 2011 Data Report. Potential exceptions would be if participants were transferred out of one grant into another.
Demographic info totals to answer in D.5
D.5= ________________
E.1 in 2012 Data Report = E.1 in 2011 Data Report E.2 in 2012 Data Report = E.2 in 2011 Data Report E.3 in 2012 Data Report is not less than E.3 in 2011 Data Report E.4 in 2012 Data Report is not less than E.4 in 2011 Data Report E.3 should be less than or equal to amount entered in E.4
(Projects should have drawn down AFI money at rate less than or equal to non-federal match ever deposited.)
Section F
OK Needs Follow Up
F.1 in 2012 Data Report = F.1 in 2011 Data Report If F.3 is greater than 0, at least one reason in F.4 - F.8 is selected. F.9 = D.5. (F.9 would not equal D.5 if a participant opened more than one AFI IDA.) (F.10+F.11) ≤ F.9. The number of accounts ever closed should be less than or equal to those ever opened. Reported answer in F.12 is participant savings only (does not include match funds)
If unexplained variance appears in Section H for Participant Savings Balance, check F.12 for feasibility given program features.
Sum Total of IDAs Open as of 9/30/12 = F.9 – (F.10 + F.11)
The number of reported open IDAs as of September 30, 2012 should be equal to the number of IDAs ever opened minus those IDAs closed due to asset purchase and minus those IDAs closed for other reasons.
Sum Total of Participant Savings in Open Accounts as of 9/30/12 = Includes only participant savings in open accounts as of 9/30/12. DOES NOT INCLUDE MATCH FUNDS.
Section G
OK Needs Follow Up
If type of withdrawal is offered, the number of participants who made withdrawals is less than or equal to the number of withdrawals made: G.3 ≤ G.2 G.9 ≤ G.8 G.15 ≤ G.14 G.21 ≤ G.20 G.26 ≤ G.25 G.29 ≤ G.28 The number of account holders making a matched withdrawal should be less than or equal to the number of individuals who have completed financial education.
C.25 ≥ (G.3 +G.9+ G.15 +G.21).
For each applicable withdrawal category, AFI match funds disbursed is less than or equal to ( ≤ ) non-federal match disbursed. If this is legitimately not the case, explanation is provided in G.31.
Number of withdrawals and withdrawal amounts appear cumulative, that is they are greater than or equal to numbers provided in the project’s 2012 Data Report. Potential exceptions would be if participants (and their relevant withdrawals) were transferred out of one grant into another.
Section H
OK Needs Follow Up
A. Variance is reasonable and explained
(Please investigate variance to verify that it truly exists. Legitimate variance is that which falls within AFI policy guidelines, e.g., interest or qualified administrative expenditures.) B. Variance is reasonable and explained
(Please investigate variance to verify that it truly exists. Legitimate variance is that which falls within AFI policy guidelines.)
C. Variance is explained. It is uncommon for this area to have legitimate variance. Please investigate, and if variance still exists, provide specific explanation.
Section I
OK Needs Follow Up
Section is completed only if project had matched Withdrawals
Data is only matched withdrawals in FY 2012
Demographic info totals to answer in I.2
I.2 = ________________ I.4 - I.6 _____________ I.8 - I.14 _____________ I.16 - I.21 _____________ I.23 - I.29 _____________
